Igor - I should clarify: I was looking at a 2 drive station and thought
I could put a 4 and a 3 TB drive in it instead of having the 2 drives in
enclosures. So I was considering buying 2 4 TB drives and extracting the
3 TB drives from their enclosures to create this system. The advantages
might be - using one socket on the power strip vs 2 and having
flexibility in cloning the master library onto backups.
Thanks again -
Mark

Mark,
That docking station solution is for the case when you are have just
bare internal drives and have a bunch of them.
There is no reason to take the drives for that out of their existing
USB enclosures (assuming those are perfectly functional and have the
optimum
connectivity).

Thanks, Igor - that's very helpful. I was thinking of something like
the New Technology - Voyager S3 docking station. The only drawback to
getting a couple of those is that I would need to extract at least a
couple drives from their existing USB enclosures. Probably not a hard
thing to do but I'm always reluctant to destroy something that is
perfectly functional. So, I will probably go with a couple drives in
enclosures.
Thanks - Mark
